AS an illustration of stock water
ing process we give the following,
and our readers can see how even
millions are made by turn of the
hand:
The United States Express Com
pany has bought the Baltimore and
Ohio Express outright for two mil
lions. 1t then increases its stock
from $7,000,00O to $10,O0O,O00. BY
a turn of the wrist the two millions
has become three. To hold this al
par requires one of two things, OIL
both-that expense be diminished, OIL
rates increased. The first is certain
fewer offices will do the work
But unless the reduction of the ex.
penses equals one-tenth of the net
receipts of both companies, before
the purchase, the rates must advance
to keep the stock in place. That the
saving should be so great is absurd
on its face. Where competition doe.
not intervene then rates will go uT
and shippers will pay more expires
sage to make the two millions equa
three in money getting power.

THE AMERICAN PARTY.-The evils
and dangers of unrestricted immi-
grafton are likely to lead up to the
organization of an American party
like that .hich was for a time prom
inent factor in the politics of the
country. The views of protector of
the movement are thus stated in the
Philadelphia Record: 'We are in
favor of restricting, not preventing,
immigration. The universal feeling
is that the Government should place
direct tax upon every foreigner who
wishes to become citizen of the
United States. We feel that If it be
right to tax foreign merchandise for
the protection of American industries
it is equally right to protect American
labor by placing tax upon the for
eign equivalent. We believe that
foreigners should live here twenty-one
wears, the same as Americans do, in
order to obtain the right of suffrage
American land ought to be held ex-
clusively by American citizens. BY
our present system we open up the
possibilities of few foreigners who
]
have capital becoming the possessers
of such vast tracts of land that they
may at no distant day own the great
er part of the west"

DEMOCRAT: The railway celebration
brought hundreds of people from
the neighboring towns to partic-
ipate, all of whom enjoyed them
selves well. The whole town, in
cluding visitors, were in attendance
at Miller's Grove in the afternoon to
hear the Grafton and discuss the ex-
cellent lunch provided. Maj. Hus-
toms effort was learned, eloquent and
practical, as were the remarks of Gov.
Stevenson, Chief Justice Hays and
Hon. S. w. Moody pointed and full
of wisdom. The exercises were of
the highest order and fully appreciat-
ed by the large audience. On Sat
urday last, the 10th instant, the peo-
pie of Weiser did themselves great
honor by unanimously voting in fav-
or of bonding the district for the sum
of $4,000 for the purpose of building
a school house. The bonds are to be-
come due in ten years and bear seven
per cent interest. We are informed
that more interest was manifested II
this election than any ever held in the
district either for county or territorial
officers, and that three wagons-car'
rying appropriate banners in favor o.
education-were running during the
afternoon of the day of election from

NEW YORK, July 22-Au the members

cided to make no statement of their side of
the Baltimore and Ohio matter The only
new developments to-day is the story that
the Baltimore and Ohio railroad has sold its
interest in the Pittsburg and Western to the
pennsylvania Company. If that is SO the
baltimore and Ohio road is cut off from
Cleveland, as the Pittsburg and Western
formed its connection to that point.

are first to recover the securities which Mr..

the deal. They claim that since he repudi-

FIZZLE OF THE WAR SHIP.
A NAVAL BOARD TO FIND OUT
HER WEAK POINTS.

Captain Ramsay, of the New York
Navy Yard, Made Senior Member
and Given His Instructions by Sec
retary Whitney-The Vessel to Be
Sent to Sea to be Tested as If in
Battle.
WASHINGTON, July 22.-The following
letter was to-day sent to Capt. L. NJ Ram
sey at the New York Navy Yard, by Secre-
tary Whitney: "You are appointed Senior
member of the Board which will convene on
board the Atlanta at Newport on July
%, for examining and reporting on
that vessel, her commanding officer hav-
ing reported that the late target
practice with his guns has resulted in injury
to their carriages and to the ship itself. The
department is desirous of having the guns
and carriages thoroughly tested by using
them as nearly as possible in the manner and
with the rapidity which would be necessary
in battle. For this purpose the commanding
officer will be directed to place the ship at
your service, and you will take her
to sea and have a general exercise of the
great guns, noting carefully the result of
the firing on the guns, gun carriages and hull
and fittings of the ship herself. The Navy
and navy is without practical
experience in the use of high power guns in
ships of modern construction, and for the
purpose of obtaining information for use
in the construction and arming
of ships now building and to be built in the
future, the Department is desrouS that your
board shall make the test in this case as
full and complete as possible, carrying il TO
the extent of obtaining all practicable infor-
nation, but not to the extent of doing unnec
essary damage to either the guns or carriages
or to tn ship itself Your notes should be
full and complete, showing what and where
the deficiencies exist, whether in the gun
itself, i'll its carriages, or the hull and fittings
of the ship; whether the ship is lacking in
strength or in proper fittings, and if so,
where, how and to what extent The
strength of the deck and its supports where
the guns are mounted should be carefully
noted, the manner Of pivoting the car
riages and checking the rccoil and
in fact, the whole question of the strength
and ability to use the guns continuously
without danger of disabling them and thus
rendering the success Of the ship in action
doubtful, is to be carefully examined and
fully reported upon. In this case much
must be left to the discretion of the board,
but the Department expects the eKamina-
ton to be thorough and complete
and that the report will clearly
show just what Deficiencies exist and the
manner of correcting them. Com. C. f.
Goodrich, Lieut.. A. r. Conden, Naval Con
structor Phillip Hichborn and Assistant
Constructor Lewis Nixon will be associated
with you as members Of the board, and you
will remain at sea or on board the Atlanta
as long as the board may think useful OF
advisable for the purpose of this examina-
tionn

houses were levied upon in the
absence of something better. A large crowd

complaints against various railroads, charg-
